Ilya Shikshin has been studying with a Korean pro teacher, Chun Poong Jho 8p, for some years now so it's natural he would go to Korea.usagi wrote:I'm happy to hear about this, for Ilya.breakfast wrote:We will publish big interview with Ilya in next issue of Goama magazine (in few days).

I asked him an unrelated question last week and he let drop the bomb he.. well, he didn't say he would be trying to become a pro, but.. I suspected it since he won the EGC.
If Ilya becomes a pro now it will give a lot of people a lot of hope.
I don't understand the insei situation in Korea or Japan but, if his goal is to become Pro, and his chances are better in Japan, why not go to Japan?
